Check your fluid - if the pads are dragging on the rotors that could mean too much fluid or old, crusty fluid. That's where I'd start.

As for the ABS fault, make sure your battery is charged up, as a low-voltage battery (that still starts the bike) can cause ABS faults.

Crust and gunk on the guide pins or pistons could be causing the pads to drag. The physics of those free floating brakes is pretty much witchcraft to me, but when things aren't just right, the pistons don't fully retract and one pad drags. May also be a sensor fault. Make sure the wiring to the caliper is intact and not damaged or frayed.
